Comment:

I don't like spinach.  Yet Karen made these for Christmas, and I soon found I had eaten all the ones on my plate and was looking around for more.  Although we had these with the main meal at Christmas, I could see having them as finger food while watching a football game with friends.  Since this is a wine-related site, I believe I'd try them with a bold white or a lighter red (we had a Sangiovese from Prospero Winery with the meal), and I wouldn't be surprised to see they cozied up to the right beer quite well.
